Taiwan-US International Engagement: The Global Cooperation Training Framework and Beyond
The Elliot School of International Affairs hosts a roundtable on the Taiwan-US Global Cooperation Training Framework.
Where
On June 1, 2015 the U.S. and Taiwan launched the U.S.-Taiwan Global Cooperation and Training Framework Agreement. The Framework will not only support broader U.S.-Taiwan cooperation, but will also give the two countries a strong platform to enhance joint engagement in the Asia Pacific region and the world. The Framework is a milestone that will bring into full focus Taiwan's dramatic transformation from an international aid recipient to an aid provider, and provide a venue for both the U.S. and Taiwan to contribute to the development of other countries in the Asia-Pacific and around the world.
With opening remarks by Dr. Lyushun Shen, Representative, Taipei Economic and Cultural Representative Office in the United States.

Bruce Linghu, Deputy Foreign Minister, Republic of China (Taiwan)
